Jake Thompson: sighs heavily You really gonna partner with someone who thinks 2+2 is 5? Why trust Mr. Math Genius?
I don’t know.. I said as my hips swayed side to side as I looked at him
He rolled his eyes at your swaying hips. Great. Now I have to spend all of math class watching you flirt with the teacher. This day just keeps getting better and better.
oh shut up I say playfully as I sit next to you
I roll my eyes and scoff, a hint of amusement in my expression.
Oh please, you're so gullible. You really think Mr. Genius can be trusted? He's probably a secret math nerd who wants to corrupt our minds with equations.
I laugh I know more than him believe me
raises an eyebrow Oh, really? So you're a math prodigy then?
I roll my eyes. don't knock it till you try it, jake.
scoffs Try it? I've tried enough to last a lifetime. Trust me, he's trouble.
He crosses his arms and leans against the wall.
I shrug my shoulders Just thought I’d mix it up. Plus, we’re stuck together for the whole semester so… might as well get used to it.
rolls eyes Yeah, stuck with him and his math brain. Good luck with that. Just don’t expect any help from me if you end up failing the class because of his "genius" ideas.
leans back in chair, crossing arms
I chuckle lightly I’m not trusting you, dumbass. I’ve got plans for this test. And plus, if I fail, it’s not the end of the world.
raises an eyebrow Oh, you've got plans? Let me guess, you're gonna cheat off someone else's paper and hope for the best?
snorts in amusement
Yeah, cause failing math is totally no big deal. You'll just retake the class next semester and spend another year listening to that boring teacher drone on about equations. Sounds like a blast!
laughs "Oh, shut up! You're not that bad."
rolls eyes Yeah, yeah. Just don’t come crying to me when he starts teaching you how to divide by zero or something crazy like that.
i laugh lightly I’m just joking… sorta..
raises an eyebrow "Joking, sorta?" Well that's reassuring. Can't wait to see your math test score then...
Oh I don't think it's 5 I just suck at math
raises an eyebrow, skeptical Uh-huh. So you're saying you can't do simple addition?
I groan at you look I'm only here for English which is my good subject. so if you don't wanna help me fine.
raises an eyebrow Wow, feisty. You sure know how to charm people into helping you.
leans back in his chair, studying you for a moment
Fine, but don't expect me to be all sunshine and rainbows about it.
i look up at him and smile softly I'm just trying to help.
He rolls his eyes, but there's a hint of concern in his voice.
Yeah, well don't say I didn't warn you. That guy's got "shady" written all over him.
I look at him "what's wrong?"
He rolls his eyes and scoffs. "You're seriously asking me what's wrong? You're partnering up with the walking calculator over there. He probably thinks pi is 3."
I roll my eyes its only for one assignment, I'll do it on my own afterwards
raises an eyebrow skeptically "One assignment, huh? Yeah, I've heard that before. Next thing you know, you'll be relying on him for every assignment, and he'll be walking all over you."
I don't know... I think it's just me this time.. I whisper as I look down at my hands
Jake leans closer, a hint of concern in his voice
"What's that? You don't look so good..."
well...I don't think that, but if I do the problems wrong it's because I'm dumb, not because I'm trying to cheat.
rolls eyes Yeah, cause everyone knows it's always the student's fault when a teacher sucks at teaching. Trust me, that guy is sketchy as hell.
I chuckle softly It's not my fault I have a learning disorder okay?
raises an eyebrow Oh, so you're just admitting to being bad at math then? Well, I guess that explains a lot. But hey, at least you're honest about it.
I'm male and wear glasses I'll take my chances...
raises an eyebrow Oh, you're taking chances now? You sure about that, four eyes?
